[. . . ] Connecting the water inlet hose • To a suitable cold water connection point: before attaching the hose, run the water until it is perfectly clear so that any impurities that may be present in the water do not clog the appliance; after performing this operation, screw the inlet hose tightly onto a tap with a ¾ gas threaded connection. • To a suitable hot water connection point: your dishwasher may be supplied with hot water from the mains supply (if you have a central heating system with radiators) provided that it does not exceed a temperature of 60°C. Screw the hose to the tap as described for connection to a cold water supply. If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact a specialist store or an authorised technician (see Assistance). [. . . ] 1: After selecting the desired wash cycle and any other options, press the DELAYED START button. 2: Select the desired delay time by pressing the Delayed Start button repeatedly; the wash phase (3 hours), the drying phase (6 hours) and end (9 hours) indicator lights will illuminate in succession. If the Delayed Start button is pressed again, the option is deselected and the indicator light switches off. The countdown will begin once the Start/Pause button has been pressed. The selected delay period indicator light flashes and the Start/Pause button stops flashing (the light becomes fixed instead). Once this time has elapsed, the DELAYED START indicator light switches off and the wash cycle begins. The Delayed Start function cannot be set once a wash cycle has been started. 8 Wash cycles If the crockery is only lightly soiled or if it has been rinsed with water before being placed in the dishwasher, reduce the amount of detergent used accordingly. The number and type of wash cycles and options may vary depending on the dishwasher model. For available OPTIONS please refer to the Table of options on the Start-up and use page. Pre-wash for dishes while awaiting completion of the load with the dishes from the next meal. 1 9 level 1 2 3 4 5* Measuring out the rinse aid Rinse aid makes it easier for the crockery to dry, as water runs off surfaces more readily and therefore does not leave streaks or marks. The rinse aid dispenser should be filled: • When the LOW RINSE AID* indicator light on the control panel is illuminated; 1. Open the dispenser by turning the lid (G) in an anticlockwise direction. Pour in the rinse aid, making sure it does not overflow from the dispenser. If this happens, clean F the spill immediately with a dry G cloth. NEVER pour the rinse aid directly into the appliance tub. For values between 0°f and 10°f, we do not recommend the use of salt. * this setting may cause a slight increase in the duration of the cycle. (°dH = hardness measured in German degrees - °f = hardness measured in French degrees - mmol/l = millimoles per litre) Measuring out the refined salt In order to achieve the best possible results using a wash cycle, make sure that the dispenser is never empty. Refined salt removes limescale from the water, thus avoiding the formation of deposits on crockery. The salt dispenser is located in the lower part of the dishwasher (see Description) and should be filled: • When the green float* cannot be seen by simply looking at the cap of the salt dispenser.
